Spartans' Record Day Gives Them One Stroke Lead at CAC Championships

Apr 24, 2010

WYOMING, DEL. – The York College golf squad got off to a
sizzling start in defense of their Capital Athletic Conference
championship as the Spartans lead Wesley College by a stroke after
the first round of the 2010 CAC Championship tournament at Wild
Quail Golf and Country Club in Wyoming, Del.

The Spartans shot a tournament record 295 while the host
Wolverines sit in second at 296. Those two scores shatter the
record for lowest round in the three year history of the CAC
Championship Tournament. Stevenson currently holds down third (312)
while Hood (323) and Marymount (327) round out the five-team
championship field.

Spartan sophomore Andrew Schmehl
(Vincentown, N.J./Seneca) leads the tournament after
blistering the par 72 track with a tournament record
three-under-par 69. Schmehl, a member of the All-CAC squad last
year, holds a two-stroke lead over Wesley's Clayton Bunting. They
are the first two players in the brief tournament history to record
sub-par 18-hole rounds.

Sophomore Adam Burkhart (Landisville,
Pa./Hempfield) sits in third place as he shot a
one-over-par 73 while the reigning CAC Player-of-the-Year
Adam
Dupler (York Haven, Pa./Red Land) carded a 76, which
has him tied for seventh. Senior Cody Trabert (York,
Pa./Central York) shot a 77 as he is tied for
10th.

Seth Shober (Stevens, Pa./Cocalico) was the
fifth Spartan to play in the tournament and he also played well,
recording a six-over-par 78, tying him for 12th.

The Spartans will attempt to earn back-to-back titles on Sunday,
as the tournament's second and final round will begin at 11:00
am.
